GDST’s mission is to help girls learn without limits, so that they go on to lead lives without limits.
Our vision is to create a more equitable world for all by equipping girls to be the leaders and changemakers of the future.
Our values underpin everything that we do:
Girls First, Fearless, Forward-thinking, Family, Fulfilling.
We know that whatever a GDST girl puts her mind to, she can achieve. We prioritise girls in everything we do. Our classrooms, curriculum and culture are all designed for girls, creating the best possible learning environments. Taking learnings from our GDST Insights Research, we drive initiatives that enable girls to reach their full potential and to lead happy, fulfilled lives.
A GDST girl will be encouraged to think differently, to speak and act with conviction. She will learn to voice her opinion and embrace unique perspectives.
Inspired to follow her dreams, and unhindered by any unconscious bias in subject choices as she moves up through the school years, she will grow in confidence, practising picking herself up from setbacks and trying again.
We embrace change to prepare our girls for an exciting future. This forward-thinking approach creates a dynamic and inclusive learning environment and place of work.
Our commitment to research and innovation ensures that we remain at the forefront of educational excellence.
Our strength lies in being a family of schools that connect, inspire and innovate together. We celebrate the uniqueness of every student, colleague and school yet, crucially, we thrive on collaboration and shared experiences across our 24 schools and 2 academies. This helps build a deep sense of community and belonging, united by our mission and values. Our 100,000 alumnae form one of the largest and most influential professional networks globally.
We champion respect and inclusivity, investing in our staff to help everyone enjoy rewarding careers and lead purposeful lives.
The GDST Learn programme offers a range of courses, webinars, and conferences, with opportunities for professional development and the sharing of expertise across our family of 26 schools.
